  • Fanatics Fest 2025: The coolest things we saw (and didn’t see)

    4 days ago | nytimes.com | Brooks Peck |Michael Salfino |Larry Holder |Hannah Vanbiber

    Fanatics Fest might be the best value for money in sports today. Anyone who hasn’t attended either of the three-day events held at New York’s Javits Center might find that shocking, but its case has only strengthened from year one to year two of its existence.

  • New York Liberty favored to set single-season WNBA wins record despite loss to Fever

    1 week ago | nytimes.com | Hannah Vanbiber

    After opening at 32.5, the New York Liberty’s regular-season win total moved up to 35.5 at BetMGM last week. And their loss to the Indiana Fever on Saturday wasn’t enough to dislodge it. The most games won in a single season by a WNBA team is 34. That means the Brooklyn squad is expected to make history. With a caveat: The WNBA expanded the schedule this year from 40 games to 44, so it’s anticipated that the single-season win-total record might not stand much longer.

  • Shai Gilgeous-Alexander favored over Tyrese Haliburton, Pascal Siakam

    3 weeks ago | nytimes.com | Hannah Vanbiber

    Shai Gilgeous-Alexander - the NBA's recently crowned regular-season MVP and Western Conference finals MVP - is the favorite to snag honors for NBA Finals MVP, too. And the odds aren't remotely close. Oklahoma City's Gilgeous-Alexander (SGA) is sitting at -625 odds to win the Bill Russell NBA Finals MVP award, with the second favorite, Indiana's Tyrese Haliburton, squinting in the distance at +700.

  • 2025 WNBA MVP odds

    1 month ago | nytimes.com | Hannah Vanbiber

    Caitlin Clark, no longer a rookie, is the favorite to win the WNBA MVP at +195 odds. Barely a hair's breadth behind her is three-time MVP A'ja Wilson (+200) and the Unrivaled league's inaugural MVP, Napheesa Collier (+250). After that, it's a lot of daylight before the next contender, Breanna Stewart at +1200. Liberty teammate Sabrina Ionescu rounds out the top five at +2500.

  • Liberty, Aces favored with Fever, Lynx rounding out top

    1 month ago | nytimes.com | Hannah Vanbiber

    With the WNBA's popularity soaring, and recent March Madness stars like No. 1 draft pick Paige Bueckers and No. 4 pick Kiki Iriafen entering the conversation, there's a lot to look forward to when the regular season tips off this Friday. The first two spots in the WNBA title odds appear to signal business as usual with the New York Liberty (+225) and Las Vegas Aces (+275) firmly in the lead.

Stumbled on the Playbill YouTube for the Tony’s red carpet and am officially a lifelong fan of Jeffrey Vizcaíno, whose name I just learned two seconds ago.

I’ve said “this is crazy” 1,000 times this French Open final and it’s lost all meaning because it just keeps getting crazier????
